Despite Fans’ Popular Demand for a Devin Haney Fight, Floyd Mayweather’s Guaranteed “Action Packed” Rolly Romero Bout Is the Right Move for Ryan Garcia

Pieces are in play for Ryan Garcia. After putting his boxing career back on track, he is ready to take it to a new level. The American boxer is geared to take on Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero after prolonged negotiations with Devin Haney hit the wall. The boxing gods have finally smiled on him, and with Floyd Mayweather backing him up, he will embark on a champion’s path.

‘KingRy’ is back among the stars fighting for the face of boxing contentions after recently dropping Oscar Duarte on the mat. His move to the 140-pound division has only reaped benefits as his stock continues to risk. His career, which once appeared to end miserably after the Gervonta Davis fight, has sprung back to life, and with a fight against Rolly Romero slated for next, he might be kingpin for the super lightweight division next.

Ryan Garcia vs. Rolly Romero: A PPV blockbuster and bolstered resume

While Ryan Garcia saw an opportunity in Devin Haney to throw his name among the best at 140, Floyd Mayweather’s mentorship changed his vision. The 25-year-old has now shifted his focus to a loud-mouthed and more crowd-friendly champion, Rolly Romero.

Rolly Romero’s acumen with the mic and trash-talking will become the selling point for the fight. His demeanor has attracted fans in the past and will continue to do so if he has a money fight with Garcia. In addition, Garcia’s extended social media following wants him to put on an exciting show, not a snooze fest, if he ends up fighting Haney. Haney is not a money fight, especially after he reportedly only sold 50k PPV against Regis Prograis.

The possibility of one of the boxing stars clinching the title against a champion who knows how to add fire to press conferences will be an amusing scenario. In addition, Garcia needs more fights under his belt before he challenges the likes of Haney and sits atop a champion’s throne. He had ignored Canelo Álvarez’s advice in the past before he took up the ‘Tank’ fight. But with ‘Money’ guiding him and hailing the fight with Romero as “action-packed,” he might correct his past mistakes.

The champion’s future for Ryan Garcia

Would Ryan Garcia have defeated Devin Haney if they had exchanged punches this year? Pundits and fans would have said no. But with Rolly Romero, he has a beatable champion. His hard-core fans would also believe so. The California native is a proven PPV star with his record 1.1 million PPV buys with ‘Tank,’ adding a gold strap will put him in the same tier as Devin Haney and Teofimo Lopez.

A champion’s title will help him set up better fights, and he will hold a better bargaining position, unlike how the Haneys wanted to twist his arm. Further doubts would have been cast on Garcia’s boxing acumen and career if he had lost to Haney. Undoubtedly, Haney is a more skilled and technical fighter than Garcia, who is far removed from a polished product.

Boxing is all about business, and Garcia can’t afford to add another loss to his boxing record. Not especially at this critical juncture, when he is a fan favorite, is nearing his prime, and is close to becoming a champion. Once established as the WBA champion, he can slowly work his way to bigger fights in Haney and ‘Tank.’

Why is Floyd Mayweather interested in Garcia and wants to put his chips on him? He has a huge fan following, a dangerous left punch, and is almost on the verge of becoming a free agent. Garcia is ready to cut ties with Oscar De La Hoya and might be on the lookout. Adding Garcia to his stable would do wonders for Mayweather, and vice versa.

Mayweather had mastered the art of selling PPVs and putting up shows. Garcia is halfway there, but might need a better promoter. Rolly Romero’s fight allows him to learn from Mayweather and get on his good books. Lastly, Mayweather might be the link for a fight that benefits all parties—a rematch with ‘Tank.’

Garcia still craves a rematch with Davis. He wants redemption, and Mayweather can help him. Mayweather and Davis go a long way back, and he can nudge both boxers for a splendid rematch, which might break some PPV records again.
